Took this photo today. We went for a coffee to Rapperswil, Switzerland. Before settling down for a cuppa, we walked around a little. My model here spotted a bunch of leaves. She hid herself behind them trying to cover her face. I captured this moment. A little post processing in Lightroom and here is the result. I just love the way this came out.
I noticed that lately I tend to do more and more B&W photography due to the fact that once color is removed, all you are left with is the pure, raw soul of the photograph.
